ANS: C
At this age (school-age), encourage children to take responsibility for their own safety.
The toddler continues to engage in solitary play but also begins to participate in parallel play, which is playing beside rather than with another child. The play of preschool children becomes more social after the third birthday as it shifts from parallel to associative play with others in small groups. The toddler's strong will is frequently exhibited in negative behavior when caregivers attempt to direct actions. Temper tantrums result when parental restrictions frustrate toddlers.
